dc.description.abstractHumans have apical value (at the apex) and an apical role in natural history. Humans, biologically, are aristocrats in ecological systems. Humans have expanded their territories around the Earth. In humans there is an ethical transcendence in natural history. Such humans have an emergent responsibility, but this is misunderstood if humans claim that they and they alone have intrinsic value. This stunts humanity, because such humans do not know genuine human transcendence--an overarching care for the biodiverse forms of life on Earth. Humans become myopic when they ought to be synoptic. Humans become ultimately altruistic when they care not just for other humans but respect all life. In doing this humans discover their storied residence on Earth.
